Institute Leadership

The value of a philosophy–a grand theory–is measured in terms of it’s predictive power and coherence in explaining how things work. Deming’s philosophy was expressed as a running commentary on the conduct of human enterprise and encompassed the nature of reality (systems and flux) and the nature of human knowing (There are no true facts).

Explanations of current events are being proffered by the media–very complicated and uniformly WRONG! The first step is to abandon the idea of a FIX. The system and the philosophy (ideology) that sustains it, must be "dynamited out".

The first step is to "institute leadership" that eschews ideology in favor of theory and AIMS "to make a better world".

We have been sold an ideological bill of goods that postulates the inevitability of relations of inequity and constant conflict based on the intractable evil of so-called "human nature". This has become a self-fulfilling prophecy that sustains those in power, but belies the abundant evidence that the human species is intensely collaborative by nature.

For over thirty years, leadership in the United States has been rooted in an ideology of human greed and cutthroat competition. It’s time for a change.
